war in the kitchen of Stations restau

makes his appearance and goes into
the kitchen, and after talking the
matter over the subject became SO
warm that the kitchen knives were
drawn and the negro cut from the ear
to the throat and the white cook from
inches above the wrist 10 the centre

Both bled like beeves. The negro
was arrested and carried to a doctor
and hospital, and the white man was
hunting medical attention. Both were
badly cut.

Why He Wanted To Laugh
Brooklyn Eagle


DR.. Talmage told me the other day that
he never suffered so much from the pro-
prieties as once when he ought to have
risen to make the opening prayer of a
service, but could not do it on account of
az overpowering desir. to laugh. He was
in country church sitting alone on a
little platform waiting for the minute
when he should begin, and gravely pre-
pairing his mind, when the door opened
and q gentleman and two ladies entered.
They were city people, and they wanted
that fact known The ladies were very
extensively dressed, but the man was a
curiosity. He WAS sppareled with the
care of q debulante at a white house ball
His eyebrows and mustaehe were dyed Jet
black, and his cheeks showed traces of
powder and paint, while his shape sug-
gested stays. He strutted to seat with
the air of peacock on parade.
The ladies sat down and their escort
hourished in after them and dropped
himself between them on q bench. The
bench broke. Then stirring scene was
enacted. The gentleman had fallen
through to the door and was caught be-
tween the splintered ends of the seat. He
wriggled helplessly ana lost his Eyeglasses
and cane and hat. The look of misery
and fright on his face succeeding the
proud dignity that had previously sat
there was to much for DIR. Talmage. He
wanted to get out in e ten acre field and
whoop. He could not help laughing, and
had to put his handkerchief up to his face
and pretend that he had a very bsd cough
Good trout fishing is reported in the
vicinity of Boscobel.

Spring Work with Poultry
Nau, Cp,1anl E,rr,as

Now that the rigors of winter are some
what relaxed and the earth has cast off
her white mantle, hens are kept very busy
peeping into every corner, prating, with
joyful anticipations, of coming events
and while warming up the enthusiasm of
their keeper, they seem to be asking for
special care and attention. During this
interesting season their liege lords pay
very strict obedience to all their wants
and whims, and strut around them with
consequential airs that are not a little
amusing to the observer.
The true method of managing all kinds
of stock is to take advantage of their ma
ture and assist it to the advancement of
their keepers interests. To induce a
hen to lay, let the nest be partly shaded.
When she wants to sit, if you wish to
make her surroundings as nearly as pos
sible like those of the nest she laid in.
On a farm where there are many hooks
and corners, and where the farmer has
some one to attend to his fowls, boxes
may be put up In a number of places,
and the fowls will select and lay, each in
her favorite nest. and when the time for
sitting has come, each will go to her &C
customed nest without much changing or
confusion; but where the accommoda-
tions are more limited, more attention
must be given to the nest.
If several varieties are kept and it is
intended to maintain pure breeds, each
variety must kept strictly separate.
Should any hens have begus to lay before
such separation, then the first ten eggs
laid afterwards should not be set; but
when the fowls have been separated three
weeks without laying it is safe to save all
subsequent eggs for their purity.
If fowls have liberty, they need not now
have warm, soft food. When the Snow
has disappeared, they will find gravel,
seed, little green food, etc; but should
they be confined, the winters care must,
of course, be continued. A lot of oyster
shells, thrown dowl on road or yard
over which horses travel is very good for
poultry on b farm
Pure water is essential, and should there
be any stagnant pools of dirty water about
the barn-yard, fill them up immediately
Drinking impure water is a source of dis
case that should never be tolerated. Animal
food should be given until earth worm 5
make their appearance. Feod literally
with grain ano hens will reward your lib
erality.

Mary And Her Lamb.
American A,r;>,,,,-ts.

MOST OF our young readers viii be sur
Pfised to hear that the ell-knovn nur-
sery song of MARY Had Little Lamb
Is sim hving. About seventy years ago
she was little girl, the daughter of a
FARMER In Worcester county, Masschu-
sets She was very fond of going with
her father to the fields to see the sheep,
and one day they found a baby lamb
which vas thought to be dead. Kind
hearted little Mary, however, lifted it ~
into her arms, and as il seemed TO breathe
she carried it home, made it a warm bed
near the stove and nursed il tenderly.
Great was her delight when, after weeks
OF cariful feeding and Watching her little
patient began to grow well and strong
and soon after II was able to run about.
IL knew Its young mistress perfectly,
always came at her call, and was happy
only when at her side. One day it Coz
lowed her to the village school, and, not
knowing what else to do with it, she put
1t under her desk and covered it with her
shawl. There it staid until Mary was
called up to the teachers desk to saw her
lesson, and then the lamb walked spietIv
after her, and the other children bust on,
laughing. So the teacher had to shut the
little girls pet in the wood shed until
school was out. Soon after this young
student named John RolIstone, wrote s
little poem about Mary and her lamb and
presented it to her. The lamb grew te
be a sheep and lived for many years, ant
when at last it died, Mary grieved so much
for 1t that her mother took some of it
wool, which was 'ss white as snow" ant
knitted pa air of stockings for her to weal
In remembrance of her darling. Some
years after the lambs death, Mrs. Sarah
Hall, celebrated woman who wrot,
books, composed some verses sbou
Mrsy's lamb and added them TO those
written by John Rollstone. making the
complete poem as We know it. Mary tool
such good care of the stockings made OF
her lambs fleece that when she was grown
up woman she gave one of them to
church fair in Boston. As soon as it be
came known that the stocking was mad,
from the fleece of 'Mary's little lamb,
every one wanted piece of it; so tn,
stocking was raveled aad the yarn cut in
to short pieces. Each piece was tied t.
a card on whish Mary" wrote her full
name, and those cards sold so we'll tina
they brought the large sum or $40 il
the Old South church.
